Oliver StarStarStarStar

Both popular in our area, but Oliver overwhelmingly so.

MLGs · 04/04/2016 18:32

Probably Noah.

I actually don't know any Noahs or Olivers. DS1 has an Oliver in his class, but that's about it!

Both really popular names round here. Would probably say Noah as only know 2 of those!

Sophronia · 04/04/2016 17:29

Oliver

I definitely prefer Noah, I know of less Noahs as well - no quite a few Olivers (although it is still a nice name!)

AmyInTheBoonies · 04/04/2016 16:39

Noah, a kind sounding, solid name.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 04/04/2016 16:39

Oliver

Oliver. Anything but Noah, it's dreadful.

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 04/04/2016 16:32

Noah.

More youthful than Oliver which makes me think of 40 something men who say 'yah' a lot.

NadiaWadia · 04/04/2016 16:30

Oliver.

iseenodust · 04/04/2016 16:12

Noah
Oliver will become Ollie which makes me think of a Boris Johnson type no crass generalisations here.

SfaOkaySuperFurryAnimals · 04/04/2016 16:10

Like both, Oliver, hands down Smile

Oliver

ThinkingAboutNumber2 · 04/04/2016 16:03

These were my top two for DS - we went with Oliver. I'm glad as two sets of friends had Noahs within a week of him being born!

sonlypuppyfat · 04/04/2016 16:02

Oliver it's brilliant

BertrandRussell · 04/04/2016 16:01

Boring? Hmm because it's popular... I don't think that makes a name boring...
